Abstract (en)
A chirp measurement apparatus includes a splitting section (11) for splitting input signal light to two paths; a first dispersion medium (12-1) with a total dispersion amount of +D ( NOTEQUAL 0) at a used wavelength, and a second dispersion medium (12-2) with a total dispersion amount of -D ( NOTEQUAL 0) at the used wavelength; first and second nonlinear photo-detecting sections (13-1 and 13-2) for receiving the signal light beams passing through the first and second dispersion media, and for outputting electric signals with the intensities proportional to nth power of the intensities of the signal light beams, where n is greater than one; and a difference detecting section (14) for computing a difference between the electric signals output from the first and second nonlinear photo-detecting sections, and for outputting a differential signal corresponding to the difference as a chirp signal of the input signal light. <IMAGE>
